Bure rates in the top 10 players of all time. I thought he was the most exciting player I've ever watched Live or on TV. #10 is my first choice for Best Canuck of All Time. NHL's Best Mario was Masterful and Gretzky 's Intuition unmatched, but When Bure turned on the Afterburners (**), No one could touch him ,and he would dangle through the whole team, always protecting the puck with his skates and fooling the defenceman by being extremely elusive ..all this time getting the crowd into a frenzy...and and his nose for the back of the net was like no other Canuck EVER . He had a mean streak and would periodically take out the other tough guys on the team by laying them out cold. He was the guy you wanted to have backing you up. The Good Old Days.. It's great that Vancouver is Finally giving Pavel the credit he deserves.....All be it a few decades to late and a few million dollars short.....Still no Cup yet, But Will there be another prodigy to save us and finally win us what we rite-fully deserve, Lord Stanley's Silver Chalice. What number will he wear and where will he come from, is he already here? Or will the sons of yesteryear remain to dominate the top(# Wise). My guess is as good as yours,. ...

Agreed, the only thing that dogshit of Messier did in his old ass age, beside selling greasy chips, is say...YUP the Canucks are indeed players in the UFA game.Plus he gave Naslund some confidence to be a better leader.

Bure asked Pat Quinn to be traded multiple times before Messier ever played for the Canucks.

Yeah I know - I just hate Messier and like to blame him for all things that went wrong when he was a Canuck. Fact is that Bure wanted out more than ever during Messier's tenure here, so yeah I still legitimately blame Messier for his departure.
